9	  This is an alternative driver for various Realtek RTL8XXX
10	  parts written to utilize the Linux mac80211 stack.
11	  The driver is known to work with a number of RTL8723AU,
12	  RL8188CU, RTL8188RU, RTL8191CU, RTL8192CU, RTL8723BU, RTL8192EU,
13	  and RTL8188FU devices.
14
15	  This driver is under development and has a limited feature
16	  set. In particular it does not yet support 40MHz channels
17	  and power management. However it should have a smaller
18	  memory footprint than the vendor drivers and benefits
19	  from the in kernel mac80211 stack.
20
21	  It can coexist with drivers from drivers/staging/rtl8723au,
22	  drivers/staging/rtl8192u, and drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi,
23	  but you will need to control which module you wish to load.
24
25	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will
26	  be called rtl8xxxu.  If unsure, say N.
